Founder & CEO

Patrick Alpaugh, MBA

An analyst at Massey Capital (Canadian PE) and Redstick Ventures (VC) — where he ran a 450+ company pipeline and wrote investor-grade memos for LPs — Patrick then crossed to the operator side, leading the Canadian rollout of Nomad Go's Spatial AI inventory product to the largest restaurant brands in the country.

He founded Avant to bring that same analyst rigor and operator instinct to Canadian PE, VC, and family offices: working AI workflows shipped in 2–4 weeks, scoped around the real investment process — deal sourcing, diligence, IC prep, LP reporting, and portfolio monitoring.
